Chapter 63: Suspicion
The battle against Yuan Shu was won, but it was not completely won, and the reason why I say this is because Yuan Shu actually fled, discarding his imperial capital Shouchun, and just fled with a group of harems and treasures that he regarded as his life. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
For Yuan Shuhui, who had sworn that he would live and die with Shouchun, he would escape, but Cao Cao's reaction was not surprised at all, as if this result had long been expected by him, so Xu Du's army did not pursue, but plundered Shouchun repeatedly, and did not let go of everything that could be taken, and even the gold dust on the palace wall was brushed down.
"Now that Shouchun has been broken, Yuan Shu runs faster than a rabbit, if the lord wants to chase after it, it is really inappropriate, now that the war in Wancheng is together, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, Li Dao in Chang'an, I'm afraid they will all make a move, we still have to go back to the teacher earlier." Guo Jia advised.
Cao Cao looked at the mess of the Shouchun Palace, I heard that the magnificence built here was extremely beautiful, but now after Yuan Shu escaped, he sent someone to burn it, if he didn't enter the city quickly, I'm afraid even the foundation was burned down, fortunately Yuan Shu this idiot still left a lot of treasures in the palace, this expedition is also worth it, the only regret is that the heirloom jade seal did not get, not enough for this matter is not in a hurry, this time not to achieve the next time, although Yuan Shu escaped, but his foundation has been destroyed, there is no possibility in thinking about the rise.
Seeing that Guo Jia commanded his subordinates, who were carrying rolls of bamboo slips to the outside, Cao Cao was puzzled: "What is Fengxiao carrying?" Literature? Books? β
Guo Jia smiled slightly, and Shi Li replied: "Back to the lord, these are the household registrations of the people near Shouchun. β
"People's household registration?" Cao Cao was silent for a moment when he heard this, his eyes lit up in an instant, and then he pointed at Guo Jia and said with a smile: "Fengxiao, you are so resolute, you are ready to move all the people of Shouchun away, hehe, others will know to rob money and treasure when they enter the city, you are good, it is the population of the people who are robbed, so if you do it, Yuan Shu is afraid that he will really become ashes." β
The corners of Guo Jia's mouth lifted slightly, and he asked rhetorically: "Could it be that the lord is going to leave these people behind so that Yuan Shu can continue to fish and meat?" β
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and laughed: "Take it away, take it all away, but where are these people going to be sent after they are taken away?" Have you ever considered it? β
Guo Jia's face unnaturally revealed a bad taste, and then said with a wicked smile: "I counted those household registrations, not to mention 70,000 households, which is almost more than 200,000 people, it is not good to put such a large population anywhere, and we will only increase the burden of Xudu if we bring them back to Xudu, so ......"
"So it's better to send it to Wancheng, where Yuan Xiaozi and they have conquered." It was Cheng Yu who answered, and he was like Guo Jia at the moment, and he said with a bad taste on his face: "Wancheng has been fighting for many years, and it has been harmed by Zhang Xiu, the population there has long dropped to a certain level, and now a lot of intact cultivated land is deserted, all the people of Shouchun will be relocated, and then the implementation of the lord's tuntian system can just increase the labor over there, if the lord can establish a grain production area in the west of Xudu, it will be of great benefit to us." β
Cao Cao waited for Cheng Yu to come to his side, and then continued to ask, "Who will execute it?" β
"Yuan Yun!" Guo Jia and Cheng Yu replied in unison.
Cao Cao smiled slightly, and then walked back and forth a few steps in the palace hall of Yuan Shu, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu's idea is definitely the best, these people of Shouchun went to Wancheng, not only can weaken Yuan Shu's strength, but also increase their own bargaining chips to control Wancheng, killing two birds with one stone, the only unsatisfactory thing is that Yuan Yun will execute.
In the past few days, I received the battle report sent by Cao Ang, and I can initially see the terrible thing about Yuan Yun's son, whether it is black powder, or the decisive decision to kill, these all prove that this fifteen-year-old boy is different from ordinary people, such a powerful person If the children of the Cao family are naturally unscrupulous, but Yuan Yun's surname is Yuan, not Cao, and whether Cao Ang can suppress Yuan Yun, this is really hard to say, now send 200,000 people to Wancheng to Yuan Yun, there are too many variables to control, if Yuan Yun wants to stand on his own in Wancheng, That scourge is much more terrifying than Zhang Xiu.
"There is nothing wrong with the people of Shouchun sending it to Wancheng, but does it have to be taken care of by Yuan Yun's kid? Who else are the two candidates? Cao Cao finally added.
Guo Jia trembled in his heart when he heard this, knowing that his lord seemed to have some kind of suspicion about Yuan Yun, which was definitely not a good thing, but this time Yuan Yun did show too eye-catching, and the limelight even overshadowed Cao Ang, this is definitely unwise behavior, it stands to reason that Yuan Yun has always been low-key, occasionally jumping out to do something big, and immediately hiding himself again, why is it so blatant this time? Not only did he see through Zhang Xiu's stealing into Yuzhou in advance, but he also immediately persuaded Cao Ang to launch a surprise attack on Wancheng, these decisions would be amazing even if they came out of those powerful strategists, not to mention that Yuan Yun, a fifteen-year-old young man, now aroused the suspicion of the lord, which can only be said to be inevitable.
"It's better to leave this matter to Yuan Xiaoshenxian to do, from the workshop before he organized the construction, as well as the control of the Xudu Yuan family, it can be seen that he has this ability, and this time to give him so many people to manage, it is also a good time to observe him, after all, the origin of this son is somewhat abrupt, the lord might as well take this opportunity to investigate him." Guo Jia expressed his opinion.
Cao Cao nodded, this is indeed a good time, if Yuan Yun is very reluctant once he takes over Wancheng, then his heart can be punished, but if it really becomes such a result, do you really want to get rid of it? Suddenly, Cao Cao hesitated a little again, this is a strange thing, when did he start to become indecisive like Yuan Shao?
β¦β¦
Sima Yi put down the scroll in his hand, and then looked at the sky from the courtyard wall of the small courtyard of the Rouge Building, and the endless autumn blue sky made people feel very comfortable. The scroll recorded in detail the process of this Wancheng raid, and even included Yuan Yun's seizure of Zhang Xiu's account book.
After understanding this, a mocking smile appeared on Sima Yi's wolf-like face, Yuan Yun was extremely smart, how could he make such a stupid mistake? Now that the Cao family is Cao Cao's family, who is Cao Cao? I'm afraid that no one can compare with it in the past few decades, at this time, it is the work of a wise man to hide himself strictly, Yuan Yun's performance is too good, and he has added a great crisis to himself in vain, unwise.
Then I remembered the scene when I faced Cao Cao for the first time, when I went to Luoyang with my father to serve, I was only thirteen years old when I first saw Cao Cao in the palace, Cao Cao did not have what he is doing now, but even so, when he faced such a character, he was still stared at by the other party and couldn't move, as if he was controlled by a strong oppressive force Every nerve in the body, now I think about it, I still feel cold all over my body.
"Sima Gongzi is so interested, why don't you find a beautiful singer as a companion, so that the beauty can enjoy it even more?" When Liu Yiyi spoke, she had already walked into the small courtyard under the guidance of the maid.
Sima Yi bowed his hand, and then said with a light smile: "Isn't this just to be able to hear Miss Yiyi's guqin skills, isn't it bad to be accompanied by others, I don't want it." β
Liu Yiyi laughed twice like a lark, and then sat leisurely in Sima Yi's left hand seat, and then raised his glass under the greeting of the maid, and continued: "Sima Gongzi has also lived in the Rouge Building for almost a month, I don't know if the hospitality here is still satisfied?" There are really many things to deal with in the past few days, so the time in the Rouge Building is less, so I will make amends first. β
After Liu Yiyi finished speaking, she raised her glass and drank the wine in the cup, and her eyes flowed in an instant, which was incredibly beautiful.
Sima Yi is naturally a person who is used to seeing beautiful women, and at this moment, he was also attracted by Liu Yiyi's demeanor, and sighed slightly in his heart, such a beauty is rare in the world, so he also raised his glass to win.
Liu Yiyi saw Sima Yi put down the wine glass, so she said apologetically: "I'm afraid I don't have time to play with the guqin today, Yiyi will go out for a while, but I've been busy lately." β
Sima Yi smiled disappreciatively and said, "Is Miss Yiyi still running around for that hotel?" This is really hard, the people of the Dong family are greedy people, and if they want to buy their real estate, they will definitely be troubled a lot, but the girl Yiyi should pay more attention to her body. β
Liu Yiyi likes the young man in front of him very much, he is knowledgeable, and he knows how to care about people, the most powerful thing is that he is well-informed, almost omniscient, such a young talent does make people feel good, these days get along, although he only needs to take the time to come over every day to accompany a few words, he also feels very comfortable, unlike accompanying other guests, there is always a feeling of hypocrisy.
"There's no way, Yiyi is a hard life, someone is willing to trust me as a Qinglou woman, and hand over the big things to Yiyi to do, and I have to do my best for this trust, as for rest or something, it is estimated that the person is simply driven by me as a cow and a horse, hehe."
Although Liu Yiyi knows that the relationship with Yuan Yun is inconvenient to talk to outsiders, she always feels a little unhappy if she doesn't mention it to others, it's like you have a very beautiful treasure in your hand, so you always hope to show off to others, although this kind of plot is also despised by herself as impetuous and naΓ―ve, but it's really her turn, and there will still be times when she can't help it, not to mention that this baby named Yuan Yun is still so magical and so fun, naturally she wants to show off to others.
Sima Yi was slightly stunned, and said suspiciously: "There are such people in the world who don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade?" It's really a tyrannical thing, what is the purpose of tossing Yiyi girl like this? β
Liu Yiyi smiled and said: "That is, Yiyi accepted her fate, so she was treated as a cow and a horse by the other party willingly, hehe." β
Sima Yi nodded in understanding: "It turns out that Miss Yiyi is talking about your lover, no wonder, once something like feelings is encountered, it can indeed only be at the mercy of the other party." β
Liu Yiyi's face suddenly turned red, fleeting, and she shook the handkerchief in her hand for a long time and said, "It's not a lover, it's just a bastard boy." Speaking of this, he smiled again, and continued: "Sima Company is also a young talent, if you meet, you will definitely appreciate each other, but unfortunately he is out on the expedition at the moment, if you wait until he comes back, I will invite him to come here to let you get to know each other." β
Sima Yi was stunned when he heard this, and he already understood who the other party was, so he smiled and said, "Miss Yiyi was originally working for that Yuan Yun, but I guessed right?" β
Liu Yiyi was not surprised to see that Sima Yi could say Yuan Yun's name, now many people in Xu Du know Yuan Yun's name, Sima Yi is a well-informed person, and he is a smart person, so it is normal to be able to guess.
Glancing at the sky, Liu Yiyi said with some surprise: "Oh, it's not early, Yiyi is going to leave, and I'll come back tomorrow to play the piano for Sima Gong, don't blame it." β
Sima Yi returned the salute shallowly, then got up and sent Liu Yiyi out all the way, and then sat back in his seat, and then called into the house in the small courtyard: "Sima Zhong, you go and inquire about the situation on the Dong family's side, and see how far Miss Liu Yiyi has acquired their property?" β
As soon as Sima Yi's words fell, he saw a figure flash in the room, and then hugged his fists and said, "No!" In an instant, one jumped over the courtyard wall, and disappeared into a bamboo forest outside the courtyard with a few ups and downs.
After Sima Zhong left, Sima Yi raised his wine glass alone, his eyes kept beating with a strange light, as if something interesting was about to happen.
But soon this gaze became tyrannical again, maybe it was Liu Yiyi's charming and moving demeanor when she thought of Yuan Yun just now, which aroused her dark side, Sima Yi thought so, and drank another glass of spirits.
